HB&O has further expanded its range of specialist support with the launch of a new corporate finance service.

H&BO Corporate Finance is designed to help business owners achieve the best possible outcomes from some of the most significant transactions of their business careers, including sales, mergers and acquisitions and management buyouts.

The team will also advise on business and share valuations, due diligence and strategic and succession planning.

Greg Philp, associate director, corporate finance, said: “The service is the latest development in our focus on meeting all the financial needs of business owners.

“A sale, merger, management buyout or acquisition is a major event for any owner-managed business, so it’s crucial to get it right.

“HB&O Corporate Finance is designed to support businesses owners in planning for and successfully navigating their way through these major milestones and achieving the best possible outcomes.”
